⚠️ Not a MELT replacement. MELT (Mandatory Entry-Level Training) is a 100+ hour licence-path course required for Class 1. This is a 3-hour online theory refresher for drivers who already hold a Class 1/A licence — perfect for skill refresher, post-incident training, fleet cohort onboarding, or MELT graduates locking in techniques before their first job. Covers defensive driving, backing techniques, mountain and highway driving, mirror use, space management, and hazard recognition. Aligned with National Safety Code (NSC) and CVSA cross-border standards. Available in English & French. Instant digital certificate + physical wallet card mailed free.

Practical truck driving skills separate safe, efficient drivers from at-risk ones. Techniques like proper backing, mountain descent, space management, mirror discipline, and defensive positioning aren't things you learn once — they're skills that need reinforcement, especially after MELT graduation, an incident, or a move to more complex equipment. National Safety Code (NSC) and CVSA cross-border standards expect every commercial driver to maintain safe operational habits, and every provincial commercial vehicle enforcement inspector checks for evidence of ongoing safety training.
Gama Safety Canada's Online Practical Truck Driving Skills course delivers a comprehensive 3-hour theory refresher for only $69.99 — designed for Class 1/A licensed drivers, MELT graduates preparing for their first job, fleet safety managers onboarding driver cohorts, and owner-operators looking to sharpen their skills. Complete the course on any device at your own pace, pass the final exam, and download your certificate instantly. Physical wallet card mailed to your address at no extra charge. Aligned with NSC standards and CVSA cross-border expectations, and available in both English and French for federally-regulated interprovincial carriers.
